New Leaf Yoga Foundation is a Toronto based yoga organization dedicated to making yoga more accessible to everyone. The practice of yoga is both a physical practice and a mindfulness meditation practice which can promote self inquiry and inner peace.

This yoga organization was founded in Toronto in 2007 by several yoga teachers who recognized the value that the practice of yoga could have on youth struggling to find their way in the world.Teenagers and young adults were initially taught yoga and meditation in a youth detention centre within Toronto. The positive outcome that resulted from this project in youth a detention centre in Toronto led to New Leaf Yoga’s current focus on making meditation and yoga accessible to youth.
